Abstract
Different types of stone masonry found in historic buildings are reviewed and their characteristic structural behaviour discussed, noting both the differences and similarities in this behaviour. The alternative equilibrium and elastic approaches to structural modelling and assessment are then presented and the choice between them considered.
